ROB & SI - Roll One Up (Reissue) Breakbeat HouseOriginally released in 2003, this reissue captures the raw energy of proper tech house from Croydon's Online Studios. Rob & Si's collaboration merges individual styles into a forward pulsing, projectile sound, with 'Roll One Up' recalling the sultry out breaths of 2 step garage and 'Zebraz' delivering an aposematic monochrome journey through echoes, stabs and field recordings of startled wildlife.
Two definitive dubstep anthems from 2009
Delicate cascading keys drift into spectral territory with a quiet sense of unresolved possibility
Heavyweight electro and acid cuts that lock the floor and twist the room
bass-heavy and nicely off-centre
pairing Chez Damier and Ron Trent’s sophisticated percussion with lush
now remastered on heavyweight 180g gold audiophile wax for that authentic Kingston heat
The record delivers a heavy-hitting boom-bap aesthetic
featuring murky dub-tech styles from Andy Martin and sleazy minimal-tech from Christian Coiffure
hardware-driven soul that cuts through the mix
The record seamlessly blends 1970s kung fu-inspired boogaloo with sophisticated world influences for a cohesive listening experience
Four cuts of rugged drum & bass
rolling jungle from Mani Festo
